How to Spend Less Without Being Miserable

by Richard Templar

There are times when you know you just need to cut down a bit, reduce your outgoings, keep a bit of a rein on the amount you spend. Yet for most of us, that makes us feel downright depressed even before we start. But reducing your spending doesn’t mean taking the fun out of life. Oh no. If you’re clever about it, life can be just as good – it just costs you less. This is the book to show you how, in Richard Templar’s inimitable blend of originality, wisdom, practicality and funny straight talking.

 

With the current world financial situation, things are going to be tight for a while for many of us – even if they weren’t already – and we’ll need to find ways to make sure the money we have goes further.

 

How to Spend Less… without being miserable is full of techniques and strategies for cutting down on expenditure. As you’d expect with Templar, there’ll be loads of common sense with a quirky take and plenty of fun.

Cien consejos para reducir los gastos de la casa. Desde los de puro sentido común (gasta teniendo en mente cuántas veces vas a usar lo que compras y evalúa así si te compensa el dinero. No es lo mismo 60€ por un abrigo para todo el invierno que 120€ por otro para una boda) hasta las no siempre practicables (cultiva tu propia comida), pasando por las happy happy / flower power (despide a tu señora de la limpieza y queda periódicamente con tus amigos para ir limpiando de una en una todas vuestras casas en grupo). Hay de todo. En general le encuentro poca utilidad, pero al haber tanta variedad de consejos seguro que alguno es útil para cualquier lector.
